[Prosthesis of the testis in monorchism and anorchism].
The authors describe the method for prosthetics of the testes in mon- and anorchism, by which the operations were carried out on 12 patients whose ages ranged from 14 to 22 years. Dow Corning (USA) prostheses were used in 3 cases, Soviet--made endoprostheses designed at the Scientific Research Institute of Rubber and Latex Articles, USSR, jointly with the Vishnevsky Institute of Surgery were applied in 9 cases. There were no postoperative complications. The late-term results were studied in follow-up periods of 1 to 4 years and proved to be satisfactory. The method deserves to be introduced into the practice of plastic surgery.
